Warwick, England
Doesn’t this just scream “Shakespeare” to you? It sure does to me. Actually, before I made the trip to England this is what I thought ALL of their non-modern buildings looked like. Its wonderfully educating to get to travel. This was taken in the city of Warwick where we also saw a marvelous old castle. It was just like a picture out of a text book. . . sort of unreal when you’re actually there. We toured the castle from top to bottom and I found the torture dungeons really disturbing. It’s hard to imagine that one human being could actually inflict those tortures on another person. I mean, how did they manage to sleep at night after doing some of those things to another human being?

Evidently civilization hasn’t outgrown it either. Very sad commentary on humanity. :( Love the photo, Chris. :heartbeat: Sure hope I get to go there someday. :shysmile:
:yes:SHAKESPEARE!!! Sure does! :lol:
I don’t think I would have ventured into the dungeons. I wouldn’t have been able to bear the thoughts or sleep that night myself just seeing such things. I can’t imagine the warped demonic mind that is capable of such things but Saddam Hussein and his sons obviously could and did.
I sure hope me and Alice both get there one day……..sigh :jealous:

Oh I love the Tudor style. I lived in a Tudor house when I was five……maybe that’s the attraction. I went back into that house as an adult and it had shrunk! LOL The perspective of a child is quite different. Don’t you wish that the innocence of childhood lasted longer?
Yes, Shakespeare. :sunny:
I took my grandson to Warwick Castle last year, he loved it.
Some men enjoy torturing others I am afraid, they dream about torturing them.
I have been in the Cotswolds today, though no pictures.
The Shakespearean picture is lovely. I agree with eternal_sojourner; I don’t think I could bear to go to the dungeons.
